[Q] Serious Issue with the Boot Screen :( Please Help - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I installed the KANG ROM found in the following thread [ROM][KANG]CM9 ICS 10.1 WiFi Preview 02/08/12 and the boot screen seems to refresh/scroll endlessly. Once the lock screen comes up (which scrolls endlessly as well), if I press the power button to turn screen off and then switch it back on, the display is stable.
I use the Korean Version SHW-M380W (Galaxy Tabl 10.1 Wifi 32GB). I tried Galaxy Task Slim 13.1 and other ICS Roms found on XDA, but the result is same.
Can someone please let me know a fix for this?
Thank you so much.

Doesn't anyone else face this issue?

I don't think it supports the korean tab

Hmm I saw that if I restore /boot from stock image backup in HC 3.2 this issue was solved. Tried and tested it and worked fine. But when I upgrade to ICS, there is no /boot to restore from. Just tried it with the Hc 3.2 /boot and the system hanged.

Probably different ramdisks as ics kang is based of devices they own and custom via the model as the Korean tab is not part of it you may need to request or hope someone donates one to them, and if it was the official update of ics it would work but these are custom made builds based off the source ics package given by Google so it isn't an official update like HC3. 2

Thank you for your reply.

have you tried romans?

Romans
You mean the AOKP one right? Yeah, I have tried it, but the same issue

I mean, the one from here: http://forum.aokp.co/page/releases
Build 28 to be specific. Strangely, the same (screen jumping) issue was there with CWM as well. And pershoot was kind enough to make a new CWM just for Korean tab. I wonder what changed though (Am quite a newbie to rooting and stuff, so dont really know where to go to)
The pershoots CWM which fixed a screen jumping issue for CWM (not for boot screen though) is found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360588
Thanks bro.

So its all fixed?

Oops, I missed the whole point Actually, I had tried that after the [ROM][KANG]CM9 ICS 10.1 WiFi Preview 02/08/12 version, but the issue persisted. Its only with the bootscreen that this issue exists. Once we go to the lock screen, the issues still exists, but a screen off -> screen on (using the power key) quickly restores the screen back to the non-fluctuating version.

Wait, why havent you used kang by Roman? Its already coming to 4.0.4

Build 29
Thanks Misledz: I tried out Build 29 located in the following page:
http://forum.aokp.co/page/releases
Still the problem persists

I think you need a clean wipe, like generally wipe everything off it, a factory reset and stock firmware flash, then see if it persists.

Only this solution worked for me on EU version:

Tried that but still no luck

I guess I have the same recovery. The issue is not with the scrolling recovery, but with the scrolling lock screen. Did it get fixed for you as well? Am using AOKP build 30.

Thank You!!!!

[Q] Stock rom instability

Good morning everyone
Seems to be that my GSII has serious issues running his stock rom (continuous reboots, not-working 3g etc.). I tried several factory resets, but nothing worked 100% . CM fixes some of my problems, but the only full-working custom rom is MIUI, that seems to be stable and very neat. Despite that I still prefer the custom rom (yes I'm probably insane), or a more traditional one like CM and I really would like to understand what kind of problems can generate such a massive amount of errors and reboots.
Could be a hardware problem? MIUI works fine, I can't explain why I still got problems with other ROMs.
Sorry for my bad English, thanks in advance
Without telling us the version of the stock rom you are using, we can never give you any answers.
I'm currently using
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 [email protected] #2 Kernel
Gingerbread.xwkj3 Build
That's not the original stock ROM, just one I found (here on xda I guess...)
Is there some kind of hardware-check I can run by myself, just for exclude manifacturing defects?
if you want to check to exclude hardware defects, u could go to the dialer and press *#0*# .. it will give u a list of tests which allows u to pinpoint any hardware defects ( if it exists) .... but if the problem is with the 3g, you could reflash your modem..
Initial problems were strictly connected with 3g's use, after a few hours of use i've noticed slowdowns using sms, then it started crashing and random rebooting. That's the same reason why I initially switched from original ROM to CM. I mean, I know that Samsung's ROM is not the best one at all, but I can't figure why it's so instable on my device.

As that the oldest stock rom try a newer one .
jje
Updating: now my GSII works with latest stable Cyanogen, except for the 3g that's still not working. Should I reflash modem, as suggested by roophz?
That old kernel is known to cause random reboots.
Update to a newer stock rom.

Update 2: I switched from the old stock rom to the latest cyanogen stable version, then to a newer stock rom and then back to MIUI again. Still no life signals from 3g.
How is that possible?

CyanogenMod 9 Stable Release?

When the "official" ICS for the galaxy tab was released, I was pleased to know that now I would have the cameras working again, I use my tablet for skype, so that where good news. But immediately after installing the official release, I started to miss CyanogenMod. Can you tell me if someone is working in CM9 with working cameras.
List of things so far:
-No Power Button Menu (when I press the power button the tab immediately turns off)
-No 3G
-No system tray auto hide options
-No Lockscreen
-Settings menu oversimplified
Any help solving any this problems would help a lot.
Forget the release date please help me with the following:
-Power Button Menu (Recover, Reboot, Profile, etc)
-System tray auto hide
-Lockscreen
Please!!!
I'm not sure what you mean by power button and lockscreen. Power button has airplane mode and reboot enabled in official ics. And lockscreen works also.

All I can say is check the threads for the SGT they are always busy trying to fix things also you can always go to there website. If all fails and and you really need the camera I suggest don't flash anything until its fixed cause flashing a rom knowing that the camera does not work then asking for a fix will only irritate the devs...

I think that the release is near now that Samsung has released de source code, pershoot is working in get a CM9 fully working, and the base CM9 is already stable. I hope to see a CM9 stable in the next weeks (maybe days? :fingers-crossed: )
Looking forward to a stable CM9 release on our Tabs. I'm not that big a fan of the stock TouchWiz ICS, but since it has a working camera, it'll do for now.
Well now that the real ics stock rom is out I'm sure they can move toward...

I found this threat today, but didn't solve any of the problems, can someone try it and say if this works.
Original poster: There is definitley something wrong with your tab. If you have flashed the correct CM build for your tab all those things should be working. If I were you I would flash to stock ICS with Odin using the correct firmware for your region from www.sammobile.com This will put you on the ICS bootloader, it will also wipe your sd partition but its the best way to start fresh. Then flash the appropriate CM build for your model from pershoots blog http://droidbasement.com/galaxy/roms/cm9/ the one dated 09/01 is the most recent and is built from the 3.1 kernel source so both cameras are working. Be sure to use the supplied CWM recovery and perform all necessary wipes i.e Cache, dalvnik cache, factory reset.
To all others: Pershoot is working on getting CM9 to RC status before work begins on CM10. He does great work so be patient.

[Q] P7510 on ICS 4.0.4 (XWLP5): unstable WiFi

Dear all,
I noticed that my P7510 running on ICS 4.0.4 (XWLP5) has an unstable WiFi connection when the received WiFi signal strength is not maximum (2 or 3 out of 4 bars). Connection often disappears and when trying to reconnect to the WiFi network manually, the there is no response. Turning off / on Wifi on my Tab is no solution to the problem either. Even a full reboot does not always help. I updated from HC 3.2 to ICS 4.0.4. after full flasing HC 3.2 first.
Is this a known issue? I cannot find any decent info on this. Or is there a ROM that fixes this? Please help. Thanks in advance.
I had no problem with the WiFi what so ever not with 4.04 and not with cm 10 jelly bean
Did you have that problem on 3.2?
Try and flash the official ICS from sammobile with odin
Thankfor replying. I did not have this issue HC 3.2. I went back to stock HC3.2 and updated via WiFi to official ICS v4.0.4. No official releases for my country for P7510 are available for my Tab, but other official ICS v4.0.4 versions I tried from Sammobile have same issue.
I'm thinking to go to CM 10 release, but since wiping is required and my P7510 has brick bug, I'm hesitating to do this operation.
Try the sammobile UK version that's what iam running and it had no problems
Cm10 is faster than official ics and gives u much more options It's a better experience at least for me except for a bug or tow but some people don't even notice them
About the brick bug I don't know what that is cause I had no problems wiping data so i can't help u their sorry

I already tried UK version from Sammobile, same WiFi issue when signal strength is not maximum. Regarding the brick bug: check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1879941

I don't know what it's not working for you every thing oky with me
About the brick bug....... I just checked and as it turned out I too have the brick bug and I have actually ran EXPERIMENTAL-p4.zip
I have wiped the data and installed custom roms more than I can count......i don't know maybe it's over-rated or iam just lucky!!
Iam afraid to do it again now but he says here "Avoiding brick:
The only danger now seems to bi if you are on stock ICS ROM and you execute factory/data reset in Samsung recovery.
If you are using custom ROMs and CWM you should be safe because all custom ROMs/krenels have now removed mmc_cap_erase() from list of capabilities."
Iam running a custom rom so I don't know.....

If you are referring to a problem like this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kwll8ZfgaD0
Then i had the same issue, the only fix is to either never let the screen turn off (which consumes the battery) or run one of the two roms that dont have that issue, those would be
- Stock Gingerbread 2.3.6 latest ones (TPH or PAN)
- Arkas 1.2.3. (based on Gingerbread)
Every other single rom i tried has the same issue (CM7-10,MiUi,...).
Best of luck

[Q] Camera screen blank

Hi, my camera app (or any camera app for that matter) won't show what I'm shooting at but instead a blank screen. I can take a picture and it still works but it's a little hard to know what I'm shooting at. I tried instagram and tumblr and had the same problem. I've tried installing a camera rom from xda forums VR Stock AOSP Camera Build6 with no luck. I'm at a loss as to what to do here because I use my camera frequently and have run out of ideas. Someone please help me. My phone is an AT&T Samsung Galaxy SII which is rooted, if that helps. Thanks in advance. I noticed earlier that when I give up and press the back key for just a second I can see a blurry picture instead of the blank screen. What could be causing this. I'm running Siyah 3.4.2 on an i777.

Siyah 3.4.2. is old and outdated, so if you're running a newer rom with it you'll have trouble like this. Before anyone can properly help you, what rom are you trying to run with 3.4.2?
ROM
Well I was running carbon at first but was disappointed with it so I went back to the factory ROM. I'm doing some research now to try and pick a new ROM to go with. I reflashed my phone with Odin and am now running Android version 4.0.4 Kernel version 3.0.35-Siyah0v3.4.2. Should I be choosing a different kernel? Update I'm now using Android version 4.0.4 and Kernel version 3.0.15-0-Siyah-s2-v4.1.5+
Problem Solved
Flashed a new kernel to upgrade to 4.1.2
